According to TechCrunch, climate activist Al Gore recently gave an interview, discussing AI and climate issues with Lila Preston, Head of Growth Equity at Generation Investment Management. Gore stated that he is not overly anxious about the emissions from AI data centers; instead, he is more concerned about warnings from within the AI industry itself regarding the direction of technological development. He believes that the potential social and governance risks of AI technology may be more urgent than the environmental footprint of data centers. Lila Preston also emphasized the potential of AI in climate adaptation but pointed out the need to address its energy consumption and emissions issues.
